Cover assembly

Abstract

A cover assembly used in a portable electronic device is described. The cover assembly includes a body member defining a hole and a cover member defining at least one latching block. The hole is surrounded by an inner peripheral wall. The inner peripheral wall is defined at least one L-shaped slot. The latching block is releasably received in the L-shaped slot, while the cover member cover is rotatably connected to the body member to expose or close off the hole.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A cover assembly, comprising:
 a body member defining a hole, the hole being surrounded by an inner peripheral wall, the inner peripheral wall defining at least one L-shaped slot; and 
 a cover member defining at least one latching block, the latching block being releasably received in the L-shaped slot, the cover member cover being rotatably connected to the body member to expose or close off the hole. 
 
     
     
       2. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the L-shaped slot includes a first slot section and a second slot section communicating with the first slot section, the first slot section is defined along a central axis direction of the hole, the second slot section is defined along a peripheral direction of the hole and adjacent to an interior wall of the body member. 
     
     
       3. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the cover member includes a flange portion and a body portion, the latching block protrudes from the body portion, the body portion is received in the hole. 
     
     
       4. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the body member is recessed to define a cavity with a bottom wall, the bottom wall defines the hole, the flange portion is received in the cavity. 
     
     
       5. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein the flange portion includes an outer surface and an opposite inner surface, the body portion protrudes from a center of the inner surface, an elastic latch portion protrudes from the inner surface adjacent to the body portion, the body member defines a through hole communicating with an interior wall of the body member, the latch portion latches into the through hole. 
     
     
       6. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the latch portion includes a head portion and a connecting portion, the connecting portion is configured to be received in the through hole, the head portion being deformed to be secured inside the body member through the through hole. 
     
     
       7. A cover assembly, comprising:
 a body member defining an earphone hole, the earphone hole being surrounded by an inner peripheral wall, the inner peripheral wall defining at least one L-shaped slot; and 
 a cover member defining at least one latching block, the latching block being releasably received in the L-shaped slot, the cover member cover being rotatably connected to the body member to expose or close off the earphone hole. 
 
     
     
       8. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the L-shaped slot includes a first slot section and a second slot section communicating with the first slot section, the first slot section is defined along a central axis direction of the earphone hole, the second slot section is defined along a peripheral direction of the earphone hole and adjacent to an interior wall of the body member. 
     
     
       9. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 7 , wherein the cover member includes a flange portion and a body portion, the latching block protrudes from the body portion, the body portion is received in the earphone hole. 
     
     
       10. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the body member is recessed to define a cavity with a bottom wall, the bottom wall defines the earphone hole, the flange portion is received in the cavity. 
     
     
       11. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 9 , wherein the flange portion includes an outer surface and an opposite inner surface, the body portion protrudes from a center of the inner surface, an elastic latch portion protrudes from the inner surface adjacent to the body portion, the body member defines a through hole communicating with an interior wall of the body member, the latch portion latches into the through hole. 
     
     
       12. The cover assembly as claimed in  claim 11 , wherein the latch portion includes a head portion and a connecting portion, the connecting portion is configured to be received in the through hole, the head portion being deformed to be secured inside the body member through the through hole.
